FAQ
How does almond flour affect cookies?
When you use almond flour in cookies, it's like giving them a little makeover. You'll get cookies that are super moist and tender, with a yummy, nutty flavor. They're also a bit more nutritious, packing in more protein and good fats. But remember, almond flour doesn't have gluten, so it doesn't hold things together like regular flour. This means your cookies might tend to crumble more, be slightly thicker, and be more delicate than typical cookies. It's great for gluten-free baking, but just keep in mind that your cookies will have their own unique, delicious character!
Why do you recommend using the Larder & Vine Baking Sheets?
We recommend these baking sheets as they are non-stick, non-toxic, and help each cookie bake evenly no matter where they're placed on the sheet or in the oven.
